No matter what people say, every act of kindness is in fact purely selfish. Even large gifts to charity feel good to the giver.

Whatever beneficial effects to others these gifts produce, it is the personal satisfaction that motivates them. However, this does not mean that charity does no good. On the contrary, selfishly motivated giving has done a lot of good in the world.

In at least two to three paragraphs, write an essay where you analyze the tone the character Marullus uses to express his interp
elixir [45]
#1) write an essay where you analyze the tone the character Marullus uses to express his interpretation of Caesar's return.
Answer: His tone is that of someone that is worried or even alarmed at Caesar’s return after he defeated his rival and also former co-ruler Pompey. Marullus knew that this victory would mean that Caesar will be the most powerful man in Rome. For this same reason he felt in a very dangerous position. He assumed that Caesar would soon impose one-man rule. Marullus joins Flavius who feels the same way to try and put a stop to Caesar. 
#2) How this is similar or different from the interpretation the painter has depicted?
Answer: It is clear that the interpretation the painter has depicted is very different. This is apparent when you compare the painting to the word that Marullus himself used to describe the return of Caesar. In the painting it seems as though Marullus is impressed by Caesar’s feat. I believe he was just putting up a front while deep down he felt disgusted just looking at caesar in his glory moment.
